  1. I just posted a reply on this website last night to try to get a kit for the 3300 engine. The 2200 engine kit is currently being used in a plane with great results. The 3300 kit will go into a plane this weekend. The guys doing these kits say that the Bundy Factory are aware of what they are doing. I hope that means we will be able to purchase these kits soon.Keep you posted.

  2. GerardI have fitted the K Liner inserts to my fine finned heads on my J3300 solid lifter motor.

    The original standard guides had shown signs of excessive wear after as little as 100 hrs on 2 separate occassions.

     

    I have now done just over 150 hrs since the last overhaul where i fitted the inserts and all is looking good. From all the reports i have received, including from the engine reconditioner that installed them for me, i should easily get 1000 hrs out of the K liner inserts.

     

    He has suggested just for piece of mind to replace them when the 1000hr overhaul is due but we will measure them up to see what wear there is.

     

    My heads still have the oil feed pipe going from the block to the heads and this still works as per normal in my application. Later model Hydraulic lifter motors with the hollow push rods and drilled rockers no longer use the oil feed pipe to the head.

    Thanks for your info. and for the research on the through bolts. I was also ? the oil hole in the valve guide with the hollow push rods.
